*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Are you about to attend a Texas HB 300 training course in order to stay healthier in the long run and not sure what to expect? Well, you have stumbled upon the right article. Following, you will be presented with some of the most important things you can learn during a Texas HB 300 training program.

� The main goal of Texas HB 300 training is to make covered entities and their employees aware of the newly adopted legislative piece: the House Bill 300.

� One of the first things you will learn during Texas HB 300 training a brief history of HIPPA (the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act), which is the national legal regulation for health care information.

� Following, the Texas HB 300 training course will focus on information regarding state and federal law and a brief presentation of the House Bill 300. This will provide participants with the legal foundations they need in order to better understand their obligations.

� Another important thing you can learn during Texas HB 300 training is the definitions on what constitutes a covered entity, health records, and personal health information (PHI).

� Apart from standard PHI, which includes laboratories results or various medical charts, training participants will also learn about electronic protected health information (e-PHI) and how to work with electronic systems that store patient information.

� During Texas HB 300 training, participants will learn relevant information and work practices that can help them ensure compliance. After completing this type of training, covered entities should fully understand what is expected of them and how they can manage to keep up with their obligations to protect patient information.

� Texas HB 300 training will raise awareness regarding the accountability covered entities face for any breaches, leaks, compromises, or disclosures of PHI.

� Another useful thing participants will learn during Texas HB 300 is the appropriate safeguards they can introduce to ensure that all PHI and e-PHI remains private and to reduce the risk of disclosing any private information.

� The training will reveal all the obligations covered entities have towards patients, apart from keeping PHI secure. For example, participants will learn that, in case any involuntary and unauthorized disclosure occurs, the patient will have to be notified as soon as reasonably possible.

� A typical training course will also detail civil and federal fines, as well as any penalties which covered entities can be subjected to in case of non compliance. Covered entities that are found guilty of PHI disclosure can face investigations and disciplinary proceedings. In some case, the license to practice can be suspended.

� After completing the training, employees may also be required to sign a statement proving their attendance.

Naturally, Texas HB 300 training courses are more complex and detailed, but the pointers presented above represent some of the most important things you can learn during the training program. Texas HB 300 is the newest legislative measure governing patient confidentiality, but if you are already familiar with HIPAA requirements, attending this training program and passing it with flying colors should be a piece of cake.
